This story is about low quality news. It seems to be a worldwide affliction. News outlets have always been slanted on the political spectrum, historically, only nowadays, it's a case of ignoring news and mostly reporting what they think helps their political cause. In the process, any kind of real reporting has become foreign to news outlets. The owners of the news outlets ( corporations would be the owners, here in the USA ), hire political goons, and it doesn't take too many goons to read the news, and carry on slanted interviews. It's much cheaper to get whatever news they print from Reuters and similar orgs, rather than have reporters on the payroll. I've checked this theory by comparing the stories of news events in different newspapers to find almost identical wording in each article. So, you aren't going to be reported correctly, ever, because their so-called "reporters" don't have those skills. They are political goons, masquerading as reporters. If you meet a reporter, the best thing to do is run away.
Reporter: you have the most view yt channel? Agadmator: ahm .. the most viewed chess channel, yes. R: what is your favourite chess player? A: the Magician of Riga. R: who's that supposed to be? A: Michael Tal, a former World Champion. R: did you won a game against Tal? A: No, I can't win against a dead man. Next day in the local newspaper - THE MOST VIEWED CHESS MAGICIAN LOST AGAINST A DEAD WORLD CHAMPION
Your check from TH-cam would be larger, ahm you have the best chess channel I have seen, honestly, your love of the game is inspiring and consuming you honor the great players and the history of thier matches and even if we all blunder missing the obvious for an idea from time to time, it would and could make a great book that, ahm could allow you to be consumed by these amazing insights more freely.
you might be the most viewed chess chanel on youtube, but you've always been number one to me Agadmator. I've been here since the early hay days. congratz on your tremendous sucess.
Yes you deserve best channel Because the way you show the games played by many legends with the great explanation that everyone can understand . Your doing a great job showing that chess is not a boring game
Antonio this is what I like about your videos: the way you play winning variations out. It doesn't just help inexperienced players like me learn mating patterns, it strengthens analysis skills! I thought 1 ...e3 followed by 2. ..Qe4 and 3 ...Qg2 mate. Only afterwards did I find White has 3 Qc8+ and 4 Qe6+ exchanging queens. Thank you so much!
The newspaper said you had the most viewed channel in the world, this was a massive blunder as it loses to the Copy and Paste variation (I'll stop now). But congrats on that news :D
Happy to hear you're the most viewed youtube Channel, you deserve it with all the effort you put in! You have definitely helped my chess game tremendously.
You have the biggest TH-cam LOVE from all your fans, out there ! Newspaper wasn't 100 % wrong ! Keep up the good constant work, you are like the daily newspaper: a daily rendez-vous ! Hey ! Chess is an ADDICTIVE hobby, after all ! Can't stand a day, without a visit to Agadmator video's....
Hi, very interesting as always. I recently started to get really keen on chess thanks to your videos, which brought me back into the game. By the way, congrats for 100k, on the road to 1 million!
One of the things I really like about you is you are a very reasonable, practical man. That is clear by how you handle uncomfortable situations, such as the incorrect news story and the St. Louis Chess Club situation. You are very levelheaded, something I’m sure helps you a great deal in chess.
I’m actually so glad I spotted your channel and subscribed back when you had around 5K or fewer subscribers. It’s awesome seeing this channel get the views it deserves because chess is like the UFC for intellectuals!
Hello, agad. Look man, a misunderstanding can occur and, if there are 100 k subs on TH-cam involved with newspapers too, it is even logical that it take so much relevance and misunderstand even more. But the relevant thing, the truly commendable, is that you have clarified the situation as soon as possible, just as you did, without trying to take advantage of it. I take off my hat and applaud your attitude. Keep it up and thanks for everything you do for chess.
Right. It's not so much the 'fake media' as the 'alternative facts' media. They pick and choose what to cover, leaving out an inconvenient fact or two. Therefore you have to pick and choose what to follow and what to allow. Most of us don't have time to do this, so we end up discarding all news as irrelevant. 'It happened, but did it really happen?' Everyone, including news organizations, are limited by their point of view, but in my life I don't recall news that's so blatantly biased as that in the present generation. What's different now is that there doesn't seem to be any attempt to get at the basic facts--only the facts that support a point of view. At least that's the way it is here in the USA.
Oh you almost got me there with Tal resigned again his won game :D This time i blundered the move, would go for bishop c3 ... Great video and congrats on being the most viewed channel !
even if you weren’t 100k subs i still select your vids because of the quality and content of your vids compared to other chess channels. :) Keep it up agad! Sending love from the Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
With everything that has been going on lately, it kinda restored my faith in humanity that a channel about the grand old game got the most views monthly.
Dear Adgamator, As you did mentioned about being the most liked/viewed chess channel, I don’t care about the statistics, what I do care is definitely the quality, which is what you provide. I enjoy watching your videos and for that I thank you and wish you will continue ...
I remember when I first came across your channel and you only had 6000 subscribers. Two things at that point we very obvious to me. 1) I have just found a hidden gem 2) It won’t stay hidden for long Congratulations on being the most viewed chess channel in the world, you deserve it.
Haha regardless of the fiasco, congratulations @agadmator for being the most successful chess channel. And let's hope, one day, it shall become The most popular as well! :)
I am happy that Tal finally realized that he is winning in these positions and didn't resign
hahahahaha, Agadmator making fun of this in his video is so cool :)
😂😂😂
I'm a little lost on the joke. Did Tal really resign a winning game at some point or...?
Firippu Martinezu in his other videos he said bymistake that - "...in this position Tal resigned the game.." where Tal was clearly winning
Never mind. I just watched the other video. Lol.
Congratulations on having most viewed TH-cam channel!
lol
The PewDiePie of Krizevci!
if people keep saying it, it will be true!
@@pavetheworldlovely We can make it a trend and everybody will come here to check what happened!!!
1. Luis Fonsi - Despacito
2. Wiz Khalifa - See You Again
3. Ed Sheeran - Shape of You
4. Mikhail Tal vs Garry Kasparov
5. Psy - Gangnam Style
XDDD
Omg
What does this got to do with chess?
Augustas Jonikas i belive its supposed to show to most viewed videos. Its a joke.

*Tal resi- I'm just kidding*
Fooled me for a second there.
11:47 🤣🤣🔥
Fool me once I will check, fool me twice I will mate
"I just wanted to let you know how things are done in Croatia.". lmao

Agadmator knows the on-going channel gag where Tal resigns winning games. 😂
He sure does after all he has the most viewed channel in the world! :-P
Not only the most popular chess channel in the world, but also the most popular TH-cam channel in the world
you might be the most viewed chess chanel on youtube, but you've always been number one to me Agadmator. I've been here since the early hay days. congratz on your tremendous sucess.
Yes you deserve best channel Because the way you show the games played by many legends with the great explanation that everyone can understand .
Your doing a great job showing that chess is not a boring game
D Praveen Yes. Only people who can't play find it boring and i feel sorry for them, they don't know what they are missing.
Totally agreed
Antonio this is what I like about your videos: the way you play winning variations out. It doesn't just help inexperienced players like me learn mating patterns, it strengthens analysis skills! I thought 1 ...e3 followed by 2. ..Qe4 and 3 ...Qg2 mate. Only afterwards did I find White has 3 Qc8+ and 4 Qe6+ exchanging queens. Thank you so much!
It still will be winning since bishop is also guarding e6 .
Haha Tal resign the game... I'm just kidding 😂😂👌
You are the biggest channel!!! ;-)
The newspaper said you had the most viewed channel in the world, this was a massive blunder as it loses to the Copy and Paste variation (I'll stop now). But congrats on that news :D
You are indeed number 1. Straight from South Africa we watch your channel.
Happy to hear you're the most viewed youtube Channel, you deserve it with all the effort you put in! You have definitely helped my chess game tremendously.
Last week i saw your videos for the first time. Today i am obsessed with chess and i dont even know why. :D Life is good.
Welcome :)
You have the biggest TH-cam LOVE from all your fans, out there !
Newspaper wasn't 100 % wrong !
Keep up the good constant work, you are like the daily newspaper: a daily rendez-vous !
Hey ! Chess is an ADDICTIVE hobby, after all !
Can't stand a day, without a visit to Agadmator video's....

Suren will say it's dubious.

Can you use this quote in your next video?!
That’s because you’re great if not the best at annotations and explaining that particular game
Respect brother 🤜🤛
Agadmator's chess channel is perfectly fine here!
Even tho there was some devious tactics by croatian media.
vulcanus30 yes but what's the idea?
This is completely winning for Croatia.
You are the BEST chess channel. You provide history, possible moves post resignations, you know counters a better moves. You are the hoodie MAN
YOU SHOULD ALSO START MAKING OPENING; TRAPS AND OTHER TUTORIALS. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE THAT
I watch your videos regularly and from Jordan - Middle East. Very informative and educational.

Your chess channel is simply the best
Your explanations and follow through are very incisive and detailed
Very entertaining and educating
Don't worry agadmator. News media is the same everywhere.
Right. It's not so much the 'fake media' as the 'alternative facts' media. They pick and choose what to cover, leaving out an inconvenient fact or two. Therefore you have to pick and choose what to follow and what to allow. Most of us don't have time to do this, so we end up discarding all news as irrelevant. 'It happened, but did it really happen?'

The positive feedback you receive it s not because of chess; It s because the great person you are!
Man, your channel deserves to no. 1!
11:47 not this time hahahaha, best chess channel

"Tal resigned" gave me butterflies in the stomach! :D
You deserve the views my friend. Keep up the great work.
Nothing like a good old Pal vs Tal game :)
10:38 "This is actually a competly draw, because queen can deliver checkmate"
Oh you almost got me there with Tal resigned again his won game :D This time i blundered the move, would go for bishop c3 ... Great video and congrats on being the most viewed channel !
Agad you'll always be the biggest TH-cam channel in my eyes!
"Tal resigned... - I'm just kidding!" Why did I laugh so hard 😂😂😂 ahh chess humour
you deserve to be the most popular chess channel on youtube; your commentary is expert.
How unpredictable! Tal almost resigned again.
Proud of you, homie.
Congratulations on having the biggest youtube channel IN THE WORLD!!!
The actual name of Mikhail Tal's opponent is Pál Benkö. Thanks for a great chess channel!
even if you weren’t 100k subs i still select your vids because of the quality and content of your vids compared to other chess channels. :) Keep it up agad! Sending love from the Philippines 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
hats off to your humility
Hai, just wanna say that I love ur channel. Keep it up dude!
haha ludnica... fejk njus :D Svaka cast na youtube kanal! :) Redovan gledatelj :)
With everything that has been going on lately, it kinda restored my faith in humanity that a channel about the grand old game got the most views monthly.
Atlast a tal game without sacrifise
black man no he plays f4 sacrificing the pawn
Next stop: The first "One million subscribers" Chess channel :) [if this is even possible] Keep up the good work sir!
Dear Adgamator,
As you did mentioned about being the most liked/viewed chess channel, I don’t care about the statistics, what I do care is definitely the quality, which is what you provide. I enjoy watching your videos and for that I thank you and wish you will continue ...
"Just to let you know how things are done in Croatia" ! LOL! A priceless throwaway line!
10:42 In a lot of your games, players survive checkmate.
3 years later and chess is really showing off that bright new future
Your channel has the most views among Chess channels because it is the best one. At least of the ones that I have seen.
I remember when I first came across your channel and you only had 6000 subscribers. Two things at that point we very obvious to me.
1) I have just found a hidden gem
2) It won’t stay hidden for long
Congratulations on being the most viewed chess channel in the world, you deserve it.
Your channel SHOULD have the most views of any channel.
11:49 I got excited for a moment when you said you were kidding
Congrats on being the biggest world in the channel!
Man did you live in Croatia? Your English is perfect!
I suck at chess, why am I hooked on watching these brilliant matches
11:45.. And in this position I laughed so hard. Good one pal. Finally Tal does win a won game😂😂😂
*Thanks Mr.NewsPaperGuy*
Honestly I was looking for the good videos covering Bennko Gambit and his other material. I say, that Tal, really something.
Hahahahahaahhaha kraljino! Pozdrav iz Belog grada! Srbija!
When you said Tal resigns I smiled 😂
In this position, Agadmator played the “Tal resigned” gambit declined.
Haha regardless of the fiasco, congratulations @agadmator for being the most successful chess channel. And let's hope, one day, it shall become The most popular as well! :)
I love you chess channel agadmator..keep it up
The Tal joke is now officially a classic!
I really hope for the day where a chess youtube channel will have the most views out of any channel
"Or chess really has a bright future" 🤣🤣💔
The dog sends excuses for being late ...
I believe that one day, chess will rule the world. XD
E kralju jel može srce na komentar inače super ti kanal triba bi imat 5 miliona suba
I don't understand this but I guess he hopes for 5 million subs which I'm agree with
lol wow. i saw queen c2 at the end and also saw the bishop attacking either of the pinned pieces but ultimately got the winning one mixed up, dang
You do have the best chess videos, with the exception of maybe Jerry (ChessNetwork) and for a quick fix, Suren... Thanks as always brother
10:41”the queen can deliver checkmate on e8 and force a propetual”
been following ya since you were born (kidding, since 5k)
That's okay man you keep doing your stuff
7:45 Possible line with White’s other Rook move:
1. Rb2 Qf3+
2. Kg1 Qxc3
3. Qb7 or Qb6; Qe1#
If 3. Rc1 then ...Qe3+ leads back to the mating net
chess's future is so bright we need shades 😎
Super ti ide engleski. Jel moze srce na komentar.😟
Nice intro...i mean, today with 1.2 million subs is quite amusing
damn dude, you just hit 100k subs, and now the most veiwed chess channel, nice
Make "Tal resigned the game" the closing line for every Tal video :P
Честитам вам на томе,дивно представите и веома јасно сваку партију,тако да то и заслужујете
Finally agad didnt make tal resign in a winning position!
"Just want to let you know how things are done in Croatia" I fukin died!
Well, you know what this means, Agadmator. A brutal fight to the death with MatoJelic. Not through chess, but with fists.
Best chess channel 👌
Almost got me when you said "Tal resi-" 😂
My first idea as i heard "You are playing with Tal's pieces" was to sacrifice my queen.
